Tease from our March zombie fashion issue
And so it begins.. Fashion swag
Fashion week is upon us.
Oh yes, there will be blood.
For those who didn’t catch it in theaters, you can now rent the sick pleasure that is Bronson on DVD as of today. Watch pretty boy, Tom Hardy, transform into England’s most violent criminal, as you too wonder just how he could have been left out of the Oscar race.
1. Not listen to NPR’s “Make-Out Mix”.
2. Jonathan Ames poetry reading @ Brooklyn’s PowerHouse Arena. Featuring selections from the newly published anthology “It’s Not You, It’s Me”.
3. “Heaven Knows I’m Miserable” speed-dating event, set to music by the Smiths and hosted by Brooklyn’s own comedian, Dave Hill.
4. “Salute to Singlehood” party @ Radegast Hall & Biergarten in Brooklyn, free bratwurst for the ladies, shots for the fellas.
5. “Valentine’s With Robots” presentation by Laura G. Duncan for, um, those of us who will be spending Valentine’s evening alone.
6. “Anti-Valentine’s Ex-orcism Party” hosted by the Village Pourhouse. Bring a picture of your ex to pin on the dartboard, bulls eye gets you an hour of open bar.
7. Bingo Night @ Black Rabbit Bar hosted by comedian Bobby Tisdale.
8. “Love, Loss, and What I Wore”, off-Broadway show about heartbreak and fashion. What more could a single girl want?
9. If you’re rrrreally desperate, the “Vampire Ball of New York”. Don’t expect Robert Pattinson.
10. And if all else fails, there’s always Chinese takeout.
As if seeing Karlie Kloss strut her bony 17 year-old legs across Union Square wasn’t enough, Agyness Deyn (ready to conquer NYC Fashion Week) graced her presence on the L train this morning. Related news: SAVE TAVI.
Becoming the next greatest Youtube star is still on my bucket list. Following in the footsteps of “Crying Sorority Girl”, “David After Denist”, “Angry German Kid” and “Charlie”, I can see myself now- performing some morally repugnant task at the cost of my dignity in hopes that I, too, achieve internet fame. Here are just a few notable fan-versions. And to all those bouncing babies and cross-dressing GaGas: keep it coming- your days of lip-syncing may be limited.
Lady GaGa’s “Bad Romance”
Beyonce’s “Single Ladies”
Michael Jackson’s “Thriller”
Vampire Weekend’s “A Punk”
OK Go’s “Here It Goes Again”
Sometimes, you get an entry filled with innocent pleasantries. Other times, though, you find definitions that are far less family-friendly. Here are 10 of our favorites.
BlackBook (by definition of Urban Dictionary): A magazine aimed at the sophistcate hipsters, the posh anti-socials and the artsie farts of the city. Self described as “The International reference for fashion, beauty, photography, luxury advertising, graphic design, production and events.” the magazine is blissfully aware of the irony they represent by condensing the world of alternative culture into one magazine (although it is quite thick.)
FINALLY! We’ve found Waldo. And to think of all places… 76 Putney High Street, UK. Hell, if I was Waldo I’d at least be chillin’ on the beach. (hint- try street mode)
I think this deserves a sappy “awwwwww”.
WEDNESDAY: Keepin it in the FAM, the Constellations, and Tommy C talks shop…
